ADD TO CART

By Michele Marchianò 2003, Legenda editions. Italian text, 144 pages, hardcover, size 24 x 31 cm, color photo. 55, b / w photo 110. The volume, created on behalf of the Tazio Nuvolari Museum on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the sample's disappearance (1953-2003), is based on materials (texts and images) belonging to the legacy entrusted by Nuvolari himself to the Automobile Club of Mantua. The work, with a brilliant narrative cut and easy to read, collects the testimonies of the greatest journalists and personalities in the world of motors, including Renato Tassinari, Mario Oriani, Bruno Roghi, Giovanni Canestrini, Pino Allievi, Cesare De Agostini, Gianni Brera , Nino Balestra, Orio Vergani, Enzo Ferrari. The wide selection of articles, excerpts from essays and biographies - but also comics, poems, songs - allows the reader to reassemble himself, as in a puzzle, the "epic" figure of Nuvolari, deepening the reasons for the birth of the myth and the historical and social significance that the figure of the great driver had in the years of the first industrialization of our country.
